These are all reasons why, as a cosplayer the rest of the year, I kind of hate Halloween. I get why other people are into it and all, but they can keep it.

I watched this yesterda and from the beginning I was expecting it to be some cliche shy-girl-gets-drunk-finds-sexuality thing. But I was wrong.

I temped at Amazon for a few months, ending in April, working for their first imprint, Encore. I am now insanely upset that I am no longer there.

Right? I love the show to bits, but I really don't want to shell out money for just a piece of it. I'd much rather pay more for the whole shebang than just $10 bucks for a small selection. It's like CN doesn't want my money or something.

I feel like this explains why I love eating super strong pickles with a soda on the side.

I just read Ender's Game for the first time a few weeks ago and as soon as I finished it I though, "Wow I'm glad they're not making a movie out of this."

Is it remotely practical to buy a netbook for the purpose of playing games on the bus or on lunch breaks? I'm not talking new fancypants games, I'm thinking more along the lines of Yume Nikki, Visual Novels (of a non-porn variety), and maybe some emulated games from various consoles and some downloaded TV watching?

That is the greatest gif in the history of gifs.

I'm 25 now, but I'd probably wait a few years. I'm hoping that I still have the capacity to get more awesome. Also, I still look like a teenager most of the time, so that's a bit lame to deal with.

It will never not disappoint me that Rowling decided to out him after the books were safely over. What, were you expecting it to sell fewer books if Dumbledore was shown to be gay in the last book? Come the fuck on.

I'm still not sure I like the angst level of the new series overall, but it's here to stay so I should probably just shut up about it.

I had the same feeling, that and a new feeling of nagging insignificance.

I have to agree. Maybe it's just that I want a show where good wins and evil loses, but Doctor Who seems to try a little too hard to push its gray areas, even where it doesn't actually help the story. It generates added drama, but that drama isn't always needed.

"Now where's our goddamn We3 movie? Seriously."

Only if you do it before age 27.

Same. Always down for more John Noble (and Anna Torv and Jasika Nicole and everyone else)

I have to agree, the screenshots look a bit, well... dweeby. There's something very classic about the TV series graphics that I really like. But I guess I'm an old fogey like that.

This will be great if I can put the text in a word doc so I can read on my downtime at work while still looking at least somewhat productive.

I feel this. A lot of days at work the best part of it is when I get to stand up and move around to bind packets together or something. Getting off my ass can be such a huge relief.

A friend of mine once referred to Walter Bishop as a "muggle Dumbledore" and I'm inclined to agree.
